Digital Books

Welcome to the Kansas EZ Library! From here you can access our online books, learn to use each service, and find help when you need it. Downloadable audiobooks and ebooks available in this collection are provided through a consortium including the State Library of Kansas and your local public library.

Please realize we are in a transitional period for our online book vendors. Our contract with the previous vendor ended December 5th, 2011. See this FAQ page for the full story:
